Comedian Russell Brand writes about serious feelings for Kate Moss

Get Him to the Greek star Russell Brand has opened up about his one-time love for supermodel Kate Moss in his new autobiography.

The British funnyman was at the beginning of his career when he met Moss and her pal Sadie Frost at a gig in 2006.

Brand admits he was in awe of the beauty and they embarked on a secret whirlwind romance.

Both have remained tight-lipped about the encounter, until now. Brand has lifted the lid on their union in upcoming autobiography Booky Wook 2: This Time It’s Personal.

He explains, “I had a mad infatuation with her. I didn’t feel all cool. It didn’t feel like a conquest, it felt like a fall down a well. I was like a 12-year-old.

“When I saw she was there (at the gig) I felt totally overwhelmed because she is obviously incredibly beautiful and she is Kate Moss. … She sort of looked at me and smiled, then she sent me a text message a bit later, saying, ‘Do you wanna meet up?’ I said, ‘Yeah, I’ll come round.’ I did go round … it was mad, that was.”

But Brand, who is now engaged to pop star Katy Perry, admits he knew there was no future to the budding relationship.

“I f**ked that up because I really, really liked her. It was never going to go anywhere but it was mad. I just thought she was remarkable.”
